(ABC NEWS) — Former college quarterback Joe Ayoob’s athletic arm may have earned him a spot in the Guinness World Records, but not for an accomplishment on the field.

Ayoob threw a paper airplane that soared a remarkable 226 feet, 10 inches, inside the McClellan Air Force Base in California on Sunday. If verified by Guinness World Records, the toss will break the previous indoor record, set in 2003, of 207 feet, 4 inches.
